Hospice care

Parkridge Health System Plus Care Network is pleased to offer this list of hospice care facilities.

Hospice focuses on the quality of life for people experiencing an advanced, life-limiting illness as well as their caregivers. Hospice provides compassionate support for people in the last phases of incurable disease so that they may live as comfortably as possible. Hospice care includes periodic visits to the patient and their caregivers by hospice nurses, aides, social workers and spiritual counselors. Hospice agencies are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to respond if patient or caregiver concerns arise.

Parkridge Health System Plus Care Network shares this information to help you make an informed decision. It is the patient's right and responsibility to choose their post-hospital facility/agency.

Our hospital leadership teams evaluated both facility/agency-reported and publicly available data to select the Parkridge Health System Plus Care Network. More specifically, we selected facilities/agencies based upon their willingness to collaborate, quality scores, overall star rating, service offerings, and clinical capabilities. Overall, the hospitals chose providers that could meet the medical and psychosocial needs of their patients. Parkridge Health System Plus Care Network facilities/agencies have entered into an agreement with the hospital but do not pay to be a part of the Parkridge Health System Plus Care Network. Please note, some providers may be affiliated with, and/or owned or controlled, by the hospital. Facilities/agencies affiliated with, and/or owned or controlled by competitors may not be eligible for participation in the network.
